Answer 1

How many kids DID you want? Unsure, just knew we wanted to have kids!

How many did you actually end up having? #2 is now "in the oven"...more in the future?? Maybe!

How many had a boy first how many had a girl first? Boy

How long did you try to have a baby b4 you got pregnant? First try, both times.

Did you find out the sex of your baby or wait until the birth? We found out! We REEAALLLY wanted a boy, and couldn't wait to find out ;-p

Parenting style strict or more lenient? In between, but leaning a little more on the strict side.

At what age did you first leave your baby with a sitter? He was 10 months and I left him with my father-in-law for an afternoon so my MIL and I could go shopping! We were vacationing at their house for a couple of weeks. Other than that our son has never had a sitter. It's too hard to find people you can trust, especially when you live hundreds of miles away from the nearest family member like we do!

What was your favorite age of your child?( 2, 3. 10. etc) I don't have much to go on b/c he's only 14 months old, but this age is really great! He's expressive and we can have a "real conversation" where I feel like he really understands the things I am saying. Yet, he can't talk back! Haha. He sleeps through the night at this age and loves to play simple games. This age is a joy!

Lastly How did you come up with names? We couldn;t decide until the very last minute (literally! He was named hours AFTER he was born) but we settled on a name that meant the same thing my hubby's name means, just in a different language, as the first name. For the middle name, hubby is named after his maternal grandfather, so we our son after my dad! Both father and son have a name that is formatted: ("Firm")+(maternal grandfather)+(surname), it's like a play on the whole "Jr." tradition, but in our own way! We didn't want him to be a true Jr.

Answer 2

Bananas! additionally for relaxing, get 2 ar 3 chairs and a huge blanket and enable them to place the blanket over the chairs and make a fortress, or fortress, or hideout etc. And later in the evening you may pass the tent to the factor and order a kinfolk action picture, get some popcorn and permit the toddlers sat decrease than their tent and watch.

Answer 4

Want three.

Have two so far, but are planning to try for #3 in the future.

I had a boy first, then another boy second. :)

Got pregnant the first time with both kids.

Found out the sex with both kids.

I'm more lenient--my husband is the strict one.

Newborn with both (my mom came into town about a week or so after their respective births, and my husband and I went out to eat and to a movie both times).

My boys are both young (2 1/2 and almost 4) and my favorite age is from birth to one week old. All they do is sleep and poop and sleep some more. :D They can't fight or talk back at that age!

Found my first son's name in a baby book and really liked the meaning. Second son's name was suggested by a girl in my husband's work-related training class. We could NOT agree on a name, and this girl suggested one and we both loved it!

We named him after my husband.

We had a girl first

First one we got pregnant with on birth control, second took about 3 months of being off BC before conceiving

We found out the sex with our first, and this one we dont get to know because the cord was between the legs when we got the ultrasound and they couldnt see the parts, lol.

Her first name (Brooklyn) was just something I liked. Her middle name is also my mothers middle name and my first name.

Fun Question:)

Answer 9

I've always wanted at least two kids.
I'm pregnant with #2 - I might consider #3 later down the road.
I had a girl first, this one is a boy.
I got pregnant 1st try with my 1st. It took 3 months with this one.
I found out at 27 weeks with my daughter and at 19 weeks with my baby now.
I'm much more lenient than I thought I would ever be.
At 4 months, I left my daughter with my parents for 4 hours which was a big deal to me because I never wanted to leave her and I breastfed exclusively and couldn't pump well.
Favorite age - I love them all so far - my daughter will be 3 next month and she's so much fun to talk to and play with.
My daughter's first name is because we liked it and her middle name is after my middle name. Our son's name will be a combo of name we liked and the middle name after my husband's grandpa.
Thanks for asking!

Answer 10

I wanted five.
I have one and one on the way.
I had a girl first.
Wasn't trying.
Found out.
Still haven't left her with a stranger (she's 19 months), but 4 months with a friend.
She's great now, she hugs us and kisses us every five minutes.
Picked a name we loved very early in pregnancy.
